Phytochemical Enhancement in Broccoli Florets after Harvest by Controlled Doses of Ozone

This depository contains data obtained from several experiments in which broccoli florets were exposed to various concentrations of ozone by fumigation. The hypothesis is that under controlled (hormetic) doses of ozone, the secondary metabolism of plant tissue can be modified. Specifically, we focus on two metabolomics pathways: hydroxycinnamic acids and glucosinolates. However, it is also essential that these doses do not affect the quality of the products, and for this reason, physiological and quality parameters were also studied in the florets. The doses applied were essentially 5 uL/L for 60 and 720 min.

本存储库收集了多种实验中获得的数据，这些实验中西兰花花蕾通过熏蒸暴露于不同浓度的臭氧中。本研究假设，在受控（激素）剂量的臭氧作用下，植物组织的次生代谢过程可以发生改变。具体而言，我们聚焦于两个代谢组学途径：羟基肉桂酸和硫代葡萄糖苷。然而，确保这些剂量不影响产品品质同样至关重要，因此，对花蕾的生理和品质参数也进行了研究。所施加的剂量主要是5 uL/L，作用时间为60分钟和720分钟。
